Supposedly, the GBA version of Mother 1 (included in the Mother 1+2 collection) had an item that decreased the random encounter rate and increased the experience rate to make the game much more forgiving.

This led to people translating 1 GBA but leaving 2 GBA untranslated other than menus.

@ogo79: Yep, I used the guide on starmen.net. I've known for a while that it's where you go for pretty much everything Earthbound/Mother. It was well put together, easy to follow, and at times entertaining even. I played it last year and played Earthbound a few months before that for the first time.

Welp, here's to starting another work week. Execs are already confused over things and it's only 12 minutes in! I think I'll just sit in a corner with my coffee, occasionally saying a few sentences that will create a fluster, just to watch it. Must be what a fox in a hen house feels like.

That face you make as you have a muffin to your mouth, minding your own business, when your super is overheard saying "Yeah, I'm sure he can get us a report of that. Today? I don't see why it would be a problem". And there's nowhere I can hide. Cripes.

@SuperLuigi111 You are my sunshine, my only sunshine! You make me happy, when skies are grey!

.......Well Ingress is even more boring than Pokemon Go and Niantic needs to burn in a fire. Seriously, I cannot do a thing here...In Ingress you have to be like, level 7 to submit new areas.....BUT YOU NEED A FREAKIN' PORTAL TO LEVEL UP.

Screw you Niantic, I give up with you.

Beast Boy: Why can't you call it an eyeball pizza thingy?

There's nothing to explore....I'd have to walk for an hour just to get to one area. Not to mention Florida weather, where it's blazing hot one moment and a pouring lightning storm the next. I'm in a decent area, too...but Niantic just sucks.

@Joeynator3000 You can always play when you happen to be in town. Or go by bike, if that's any faster. It's a game that incentivices you to go out. Without visiting stops, gyms, or just walking in general, it's a pretty boring game.

Hey, guess what, my town (which is decently busy/big)....has one stop TOTAL. Like I said, Niantic just sucks. There's basically no way to get new Stops/areas/whatever. Seriously, the games are waste of time if they're not going to fix this.
